Tasting Notes

On the nose, lemon balm mingles with a whisper of gentle Orcadian peat and airy vanilla cake. The palate reveals layers of sweet, comforting runny honey, leading into a finish that evokes childhood memories of vanilla soft serve ice cream perched atop a crispy cone. A playful and summery Orkney dram, with a nostalgic sweetness and maritime charm.

Distillery Information

Orkney, an archipelago off the coast of the Scottish Highlands, boasts some of Scotland's most stunning scenery and diverse wildlife, ancient Neolithic sites and exceptional whisky. This single malt is renowned for its invigorating notes of sea air. While the distillery remains unnamed, we believe that a touch of mystery only enhances its allure, especially when the whisky is as exceptional as this.
